A Personal Introduction
First things first, I want to congratulate you for taking the initiative to take control
of your life. Too many people these days sit around thinking about how they can
“attract” great things into their lives, instead of getting off the couch and doing
something about it!
By downloading this report, you have proven that YOU are a DO-ER!
The information I am about to share with you is “The 5 things I’m
about to share with you will be the most critical
principles to building lean muscle.”
The fact that you took the time to come to my page to download this free report
tells me that you may already know “a little” something about me and what I do, or
perhaps you don’t. Either way, before I get to the 5 things you need to know, I want
to get you thinking along the lines of where you are NOW, and what got you here?
Fair enough?
Many of you are looking to add a few pounds of quality muscle. Some of you may
be looking to improve a weak or lagging body part. Then, there are others who
want to completely overhaul their physique and create their most ideal, amazing,
incredible, jaw-dropping, dream physique! (Sorry, I get excited about this stuff!).
The one thing we ALL have in common, is that we are unhappy with some part of
our physique and are looking to find the most effective way of improving it, right?
Exactly!
That is nothing to be ashamed of. As human beings, we SHOULD strive for more!
That doesn’t mean we aren’t very happy with our lives; it just means we want

to be better, and we don’t want to spend years wasting time, doing the wrong
things!
Trust me, I’ve been
there too, just like
you. In fact, I was
probably dissatisfied
a lot more often than I
was satisfied with my
physique. Which is
ultimately WHY I am
where I am today!
I have spent FIFTEEN
(15) years researching
everything I could get
my hands on to learn
the most effective
and optimal way to
improve my physique.
I always knew I
COULD do it; I just
didn’t know HOW
to do it!

The Good, Bad & Frustrating News…
The good news is that you can find a lot of “bodybuilding 101” information on
free websites (often written by 20 year-old kids in exchange for free supplements
from the site owners) and in some magazines, and it’s taken you where you are
today. That’s okay but you want more! The generic info isn’t going to cut it
anymore.
The bad news is that most info is often contradicting, taught by “arm chair”
experts and often being shared by someone with a hidden agenda. (Read: buy
this shiny object)
The frustrating news is that the cream-of-the-crop information is only accessible
by Olympic athletes and shared amongst the brightest doctors, trainers, and
therapists. They are not updating their Facebook pages with their finding!
The cream-of-the-crop has NEVER been all
contained in ONE place…. UNTIL NOW!
One of the most important factors in your success going forward is going to be
where you get your motivation. This is an important factor to identify before
setting out to change ANY aspect of your life.
Do you just want to put on a few pounds of muscle to feel better about yourself?
Look better in your clothes? Drop a little body fat? Maybe you’re completely tired
of being the skinny kid, or being the person with narrow shoulders and a pancake
chest?
Do you simply want people to be able to tell that you workout, without having to
ask? (We’ve ALL got that annoying question!).

My Surprising, But True Motivation Story…
For me, it simply started out with my wanting to be “fit”. Everyone in my family
was overweight, didn’t eat well (at all!), and NO one worked out (so much for the
“genetic” argument). I come from a family of simple, hard working, blue collar
people. They always told me that I could do absolutely anything I wanted to, but
I bet they would’ve believed that I would grow up to be a penguin before they
would’ve believed I would be a pro athlete and bodybuilder!
Once I set my sights, there was no stopping me.
The point of this story is that everyone can look for, and find excuses, in their
lives. If you find something you WANT, then go get it.
Set your goals high! Surround yourself with the right people and the right
information, and don’t quit until you have achieved your goals!
On to the reason you’re here!
I am very excited to finally be able to share something that I have been perfecting
for years! Wouldn’t it be great to finally just “get it”? To understand EXACTLY
what it takes to build muscle? To step in the gym and KNOW that you have taken
all the necessary steps to start the growth process.

I Know What’s Really Holding You Back….
Because You’re Just Like Me…
I know you know where I am coming from when I talk about that feeling of leaving
the gym and wondering
“Did I do enough?”
Or even worse
“Damn, I feel like I could’ve done more!”
I used to HATE that. Sometimes I even felt like I wanted to go back.
Well, guess what? There is a clear-cut, tried-
and- tested, real- world way to train a muscle
and KNOW you have done enough to grow!
It’s not a matter of, “You need to figure out what works for you…”
Those are bullshit statements!
I’m Here To Reveal The IRREFUTABLE
Methods To Build Muscle.
Pretty exciting, huh?!
Yup, I was almost in tears when I realized it. (Not really, but I was pretty darn
excited).

Now, there are a few variables that go along with this so take your time and make
sure you LEARN them. My goal here is to make each and every one of you
realize that you are in CONTROL.
I want you to take each and every variable and be able to manipulate it at will.
Want to build bigger triceps?
What to change the shape of your back??
(You’re all diggin’ the batman soundtrack now, aren’t you?! 
Ok, ok, enough of my dramatic sound effects. You get the idea.
All kidding aside, I am SO EXCITED to share all this knowledge with you.
I honestly believe that ANYONE can have the physique they dream of! It is
all within your control, or soon will be!

Muscle Killer #1
Being Obsessed With Lifting Heavy!
Ever notice that you FEEL the muscle better on your warm up sets than you do
on your „working sets”? Isn’t it so true that the lighter weights often burn way
more than the heavy ones? Why do you think that is?
Well, one of the main reasons is that you’re not focusing all your attention on
stabilizing a weight and barely moving it from point A to point B, likely using every
muscle in the general vicinity to get it to move and the range is WAY smaller
than it was with the lighter weight. The PROBLEM here is that the TENSION has
SHIFTED everywhere BUT the working muscle!
“Heavy weights are useless if you can’t FEEL tension on the target muscle!”

Your body adapts and starts using anything it can to keep itself safe. You can
continue lifting heavy weights, all day long, but without optimal muscle tension,
don’t expect to see any improvement in your skinny arms and legs! If you can’t
„feel” your muscles then you won’t be able to exhaust them enough to illicit the
hormonal, metabolic and nervous system response for muscle growth.
Let’s go through this again.
You will NEVER build a muscle you
can’t FEEL.
At some point in your muscle-building
journey, you have all heard the term
“Mind/ Muscle Connection.”
But REALLY, what the heck does that
mean!?
We’ve all heard someone say, “You’ve
got to squeeze” or “If you don’t squeeze
it, you will never build muscle”.
BUT how many of us REALLY know
what that means? Or how to do it?
The truth is: not many!
QUESTION: If we’ve all heard it, and we all know we NEED to be doing it, why
aren’t more people doing it?
Because IT’S NOT EASY TO DO!
Or is it?
Co-contracting
my glutes &
hams

ANSWER: It’s VERY easy to do! But in order for you to do it, you must first know
HOW to do it!
What an amazing concept.
This brings us to…
Solution #1
To Doubling Your Muscle Gains:
Tension! Tension! Tension! NOT Heavy Weight!
Introducing Intentions!
Many of you who follow my training advice have heard it before. Muscles
communicate in terms of TENSION! Muscles have NO idea how much weight
you’re lifting. They only recognize how much TORQUE is going through them.
What does this all mean to you?
THE best news you will hear ALL DAY:
YOU can build JUST AS MUCH MUSCLE USING a 20lb weight as you can using
an 80lb weight!!!
“BPak, YOU’RE CRAZY!”
Nope, it’s true. IF you learn how to apply intention to as many exercises as you
can, you will learn to manipulate the amount of weight you’re using, in your favor!
You’re probably thinking a few things right now, like…
“But I heard big weights build big muscles!”
WRONG.

That’s what I call meathead math.
Increased TENSION builds muscle.
Or maybe you’re thinking, “The guys at my gym with big muscles use big
weights!” Ya, they do! Most guys that carry any muscle at all are older and have
been training for years. They’ve tried every type of training under the sun and
really have NO clue WHAT built the muscle they have; they just threw enough
randomness at the wall and something stuck along the way.
Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to build the PHYSIQUE YOU WANT in half the
time? Knowing that you’re doing the right thing each and every time you step in
the gym….YUP! No-brainer.
It’s probably the COOLEST thing I’ve ever come across. No ONE thing changed
my life and my physique like INTENTION has. Imagine now being able to
create as MUCH tension, or as little tension, as you want, whenever you want,
completely at will.
GET THIS:
Increased Time Under TENSION = GROW TIME!
Imagine now going to the gym and not having to worry whether you’re going to
feel great, or feel terrible, or whether you’re strong that day, or weak, or whether
or not you will FEEL the muscle that day! You will never doubt your ability to
create MAXIMUM tension and, therefore, have mind-blowing workouts!
THIS SOUNDS AMAZING TO ME! And trust me when I tell you that once you
“get it”, you will never want to train without it. So what does Intention look like in
action?

WANT A BIGGER CHEST, OVERNIGHT?!
I want you to try something sitting there at home, and the next time you go to the
gym try it out.
Stand in your doorway facing sideways, extend your arms out in front of you
like you might do if you were about to grab a barbell out in front of you to bench
press. With one arm on either side of the wall (i.e., wall is between your arms),
keeping your arms straight and locking your arms out, try to “shove” or push into
the wall with both hands.
What happened?
Your chest contracted, didn’t it? You didn’t even think about contracting your
Just when you think you’ve seen all,
Charles Glass throws new angles at
me. I love it! Even at my level I’m still
learning and seeking out the best!

chest; it just happened on its own. Hmmm…”How can I apply this to chest
training?” you ask yourself. (If you’re not, you should!).
On a bench press, grab the bar, and apply a small amount of force inward.
Without actually moving your hands, try to shove them toward each other.
Try doing this on a bench press next time you’re in the gym -- the feeling and
results will blow your mind.
Keep in mind it takes some time for your body to override the old way you used
to do bench press. Don’t worry, you won’t be needing that anymore!
WANT BETTER LEGS IN A FEW DAYS?!
One of the most common things I hear from guys is “I want to increase my
‘sweep’” or ladies, “I need to tighten up my saddle bags”. Sound familiar?
Yup you all know you’ve said it, or at least heard someone say it. People become
obsessed with this area because it completely dictates how we look in a pair of
jeans.
Nobody wants a squishy pillow back there, flapping in the wind when you walk.
We all want a tight round bum to attract the opposite sex. No doubt.
Well, it’s a lot more simple than you think once you understand this simple
‘intention’ trick.
I see so many people doing glute “kickbacks” or sidekicks or adductor/abductor
machines, to try to tighten and build these areas. The truth is that BIG muscles
require large amounts of tension.
Little “cutesy” movements aren’t doing “squat” for those big muscles.

You need to squat! But you need
to squat with intention!
I want you to stand up.
Take a shoulder- width stance like
you would if you were going to
squat.
Now before you squat, I want
you to just lightly shove your feet
out against the ground (without
moving obviously, just try to push
them out).
What happened?
The entire outside of your leg just
contracted, didn’t it? COOL!
Now I can control EXACTLY
where all the tension falls during
ANY exercise in the gym.
DING DING DING! We have a winner!!
Control the tension,
control the size you build your legs!

Guess what? This stuff exists for basically every body part! Over the next two
weeks, I’m going to reveal how to explode new muscle off your entire frame.
PARTY TIME!
Yes, even leg
extensions can build
size with sufficient
tension!

Muscle Killer #2
Believing That You Have
“Genetically Weak” Body Parts!
Say WHAT?! BPak, whatchu smoking now’?
I know it sounds like a silly statement, but hear me out.
We all have our “strong” body parts. You and I both have body parts that
just seem to grow much more easily than the rest of our parts: the part
that we really don’t have to think about when we train: it just sort of feels
natural and grows easily. Isn’t this so true?
Look at your training buddies and you’ll see how real this is. You and your
training partner use the same weight and same exercises and same intensity and
his arms are huge, and yours are small. Or perhaps it’s another body part this
resonates with.
Have you ever stopped to ask yourself WHY this is true?
The truth of the matter is that it’s what you DON’T SEE that is making all the
difference in the world.
Is it just because maybe I did a few extra calf raises in my mother’s tummy? Or,
maybe I knocked out a few extra pushups in there?
What does “genetics” really refer to? Does it mean that some people just have
more dense muscle then I do?
Possibly, but people typically have the same muscle density all over their bodies
(at least proportionally). So, out goes that theory.

So then, what does this umbrella term “genetics” actually refer to?
After having extensively studied biomechanics and observed more athletes than
I care to remember, the answer is actually pretty simple.
This applies to my buddy Steve Kuclo too.

Genetics refers to the “mechanical advantage”
some muscles have, and other muscles do not.
To explain this in simple terms, it means that some people’s structure is just set
up to develop certain body parts quickly.
Some people might have short arms, or slouched shoulders. Some might be
double-jointed in their knees. Maybe they have a particular pelvic tilt to make
their butt bigger, or certain spinal curvature that allows them to build their lat
muscles much quicker. The list goes on!
What do all of these things have in common?
That leads us to Solution #2…
Solution #2
Breaking Crappy Lifting Technique,
& ReTraining Movement Patterns
They allow the person to keep the greatest amount of TENSION in a muscle over
the longest RANGE OF MOTION (ROM), without having to think about it.
Think about your strongest and best body parts. For most of us, it’s the muscle
and we just picked up a weight and went to work. You didn’t have to think about
it; you just did it, right?
Well, no doubt, some muscles will always be easier to feel from day 1. Does this
mean that we can’t make it so every other muscle feels this naturally, too??
YES WE CAN!

This Might Go Over Your Head But It’ll
Open The Door To Exploding Slabs Of
New Muscle Onto Your Frame…
Do your best to stay with me here…
The body moves in a series of predetermined patterns stored in the brain as
something called “engram”. Basically, your brain remembers certain movement
patterns and knows exactly which muscles to fire, and in what sequence, to
produce that desired movement pattern.
So, every single movement you make is stored in your brain as an engram. (The
only exception is a reflex -like pulling away when touching a hot stove).
The COOL thing is, every single one of these engrams can be CHANGED!
It’s the amazing discovery called neuroplasticity! (Science geeks read up---
fascinating stuff).
Basically, we just need to
overwrite these old crappy
movement patterns with the
right ones!
This does NOT mean that
everyone can relearn the
engram for sprinting and kick
Usain Bolt’s butt; sorry peeps,
we still have to deal with
muscle fiber composition.
“Overwrite your
brains crappy
movement
patters with
the right ones!”

BUT, it does mean that YOU can bring up ANY
“lagging” body part and BLOW RIGHT PAST YOUR
GENETIC POTENTIAL!
As many of you know, I do a lot of work with high-level athletes and I also get to
work with many pro bodybuilders. The amazing advantage to being able to work
with bodybuilders and athletes as my “test subjects” is that they are typically very
“in tune” with their bodies and are able to apply my teaching very quickly.
The benefit of this, for me, is that I can quickly test any theory for validity. The
true test, once the athlete understands what I’m trying to tell them, is how long
it takes to see results. If the results I’m after are not quick enough, out the door
they go, and on to the next theory.
A great example of this RELEARNING MOTOR ENGRAMS is with a client of
mine-- Mark. He came to me wanting to become a pro bodybuilder but he just
couldn’t develop a certain part of his legs (vastus medialis or “tear drop muscle”).
So, I had Mark demonstrate a few leg movements for me and it was clear to see
that he wasn’t obeying a few basic rules of muscle- building.
1) Not maintaining tension – he was bouncing.

2) Not maintaining “straight lines”- his hips, knees, and ankles did not line up
properly during the movement.
3) Not achieving a full ROM during his exercises.
Long story short, we made Mark take a step back. We had him relearn the proper
motor engram for legs, applied the other principles set forth here, and he put 3
inches on his legs in 3 months doing the exact same movements and workouts
he had done before.

Mark was blown away with how simple it was, and amazed by his results.
I wasn’t surprised in the least. Actually, I expected it.
OK LISTEN UP! THIS IS HUGE…….
The TRICK when applying this principle is to NEVER use forced reps during the
learning phase. When the set is done, it’s done. Forced reps will reinforce BAD
movement patterns.
We want your brain to remember the ideal movement and NOTHING ELSE. So
when it comes time to train, you don’t have to think about it!
LEARN it now, grow FOREVER... exploit your will!
Take it from me! I went from a guy who was all legs, and am now well on my way
to being one of the world’s most balanced and symmetrical pros.
Pretty cool, huh!?
I think so, too ;)
So to summarize:
The key is to overwrite old crappy movement patterns with new ones. For any
lifter, especially serious bodybuilders, this is the number one reason you’re
unable to grow. Knowing the OPTIMAL range of motion – how to fully lengthen
(extend) and fully shorten (contract) a muscle – is the key to growing.
A muscle is weakest at the extreme points of the range of motion; i.e., when it
is fully lengthened or fully shortened. Putting your muscle into these full ranges
where we are most unfamiliar is critical to develop untapped and untrained
muscle fibers. Strengthening these weak points of the muscle will strengthen the
maximal ability of the entire muscle. It’s like when the worst player on the team
gets better, even if it’s a small increase, the whole team benefits.

In my upcoming MI40 System I’ll teach you the proper anatomical function of
each muscle so you can learn how to manipulate everything from shoulder
position, hip orientation, spine flexion or extension, wrist position and elbow
position in order to isolate „weak” body parts and say goodbye to them
FOREVER.
It is important to realize that it is just as easy to learn the RIGHT technique as it is
to learn the WRONG one. So why not choose now to learn the right way and say
goodbye to crappy results?!
“Re learning proper technique might even help you finally build your calves!”

Muscle Killer #3
Not Understanding Muscle Function & How To
Maximally Shorten & Lengthen A Muscle
IF you want FULLY developed muscles, you must use a FULL Range of Motion
and I bet you have NO IDEA what that actually looks like in application!
This may sound a little harsh, but it’s really not.
Let me ask you:
1) Do you know how to FULLY shorten your lat?

2) How about fully lengthen your pecs?

3) Can you fully shorten your triceps on pressdowns?

4) Could you show me what a fully lengthened bicep looks like when
performing incline curls?
I bet you THINK you have the answer, and I’d also be willing to bet that 99% of
you would be inaccurate.
If you’re not fully shortening and lengthening your
muscles through their complete range of motion,
then you’re not leaving the gym having maximally
stimulated the muscle and no new growth is initiated.
THIS is one of the major reasons you’re getting less than average results.
I would say, of the last 1000 people I’ve encountered in the gym, ONE has known

what a full range actually means for any of the major muscle groups! If you
scored less than 1 out of 4 above, it’s okay because this knowledge is not taught
in the generic websites and magazines.
Many pros don’t even know about most of these things.
So, how are you supposed to train with a full range for optimal muscle growth if
you don’t actually know what it means?
The next thing many of you might be thinking is: so why do so many guys with
great physiques train with poor form or do not use a full ROM?
How did these freaky bodybuilders build their bodies with horrible technique?
The truth of the matter is there are probably about 10 guys in the entire world that
train with terrible form and grow immense muscles.
TEN. That’s 10. Out of the millions that train regularly.
They are the tiny, tiny EXCEPTION, not the rule.
The rest of these bozos are yanking big weights to
appease their buddies and hurting themselves a lot
more than they’re growing. Sure they might have
some muscle, but its usually disproportionate and
they look like they’re in pain all the time by the way
they walk around. Swollen from head to toe.
Not cool. Not in this day and age anyway. Maybe in the 80s. Parachute pants.
The goal of weight training is to build an aesthetic physique, capable of looking
great for years to come. Learn to build a SMART PHYSIQUE and maintain it for
life, with less effort.

I’m sorry if I’m making you feel like you’ve been wasting your time in the gym.
The truth is, most people are actually completely wasting their time.
I don’t know about you, but inside the gym is NOT where I want to be spending
my spare time!
The beach sounds nice and so does being at home with my dream girl and our
soon to be baby boy!
Wherever it may be for
you, it’s not the gym.
I’m here to help you spend
LESS TIME in the gym,
and get WAY MORE
RESULTS, FAST!!!
Wooooooooo! ☺
(See, I get a little excited
about this stuff!)

Solution #3
Learning Proper Anatomical Muscle Function
Basically, it boils down to learning the proper anatomical function of each of the
muscles and using this to your advantage.
I know it sounds like a lot of work, but don’t worry, I don’t expect anyone to learn
the science. Just follow instructions, make some small changes to the way you
train in the gym, and (Batman again! :))
Lets put this to use:
Want big triceps? A fully contracted (shortened) tricep can ONLY happen with
your elbow extended behind you, arms slightly internally rotated (palm facing
behind you), and fully extended elbow.
Try it now!
You can feel it contract without great effort, right?
Time for some sweet hammies:
If you ask me, really well developed hamstrings are a benchmark of a great
athlete. If I see someone with great hamstrings, I begin to assume a bunch
of things:
1) They know what they’re doing
2) They are a great athlete.
3) They look awesome
4) They’re very fit.
Might just be me, but because so few people have good hamstring development,

I use it as one of my indicators of fitness and exercise knowledge.
The reason most people lack hamstrings is because they never get them
anywhere near their shortest position. I watch people on a daily basis yank their
butts in the air, not knowingly actually taking the hamstring out of the movement
as they do so!
The minute your butt goes in the air at all, less tension is placed on the
hamstring. In order for maximum tension and maximum shortening, the hip must
be extended; i.e., your butt needs to stay locked down.
Next time you do a lying leg curl, try to do it with NO/MINIMAL butt movement.
It will probably feel impossible at first.
This can be a tough one to get into because a large portion of the population
lacks flexibility so this might be a bit tough at first. Give it a try though; the
contraction will blow your mind.
Execution:
Lift your chest off the pad as much as is comfortable while leaving your hips
pressed against the pad. The goal is to try to align your shoulders, hips and
knees in a straight line (or knees slightly extended behind your hips).
Maintain this position without extraneous movement throughout the entire set.
This, in fact, shortens the hamstring muscles from BOTH ends, thereby getting
it maximally shortened.
The feeling and contraction is unreal!
In fact, if you want to feel it for yourself right now, stand up, and hold onto
something for balance. Keeping your chest up and without leaning forward at all,
I want you to simply extend one of your legs behind you until you feel your glute

contract. Got it?
Now, curl your leg (bring your heel up toward your bum). Do not change anything
else. It’s important that that knee stay behind your hip and your glute stays
contracted. (If you have a hard time contracting your glute in that position, your
hip flexors are way too tight and this is too advanced for you right now.)
If you got that right, regardless of your current fitness level, you are going to be
saying “Wow! I’ve never felt a contraction like that in my hamstrings before.” The
crazy part is, it may also appear to be a rather short Range of Motion, right?
“WICKED STUFF, BPak!”
NOW ON TO THE GAMECHANGERS!!!

Muscle Killer #4
Never Knowing If You’ve Ever Actually Done
Enough To Grow a.k.a. “Have I done enough?”
or “Should I do more?”
For years, I had been searching for the best way to overload my muscles each
and every time I go in the gym. I know you can relate to those days when you
worked “hard” but still felt like you could have done more.
How do I know when I’ve done enough to stimulate growth? Are my muscles
completely exhausted, or should I be doing more? Ever ask yourself that? I know
I have. I remember days when I would get in my car after the gym and say to
myself “Damn, I wish I had done more” and legitimately contemplate going back
in to do more. I’m sure we’ve all been there. “I wish there was a way to know that
I had completely exhausted every single muscle fiber that I could!”
I CRAVED something that would ensure that my muscles are taken to their limit,
and CREATE NEW GROWTH!
Let’s first understand something about the human body.
Our bodies want to maintain EXACTLY as they are.
It’s called homeostasis. For all our attempts to change it, our bodies fight back as
much as possible to maintain the status quo.
We need to coerce them! We need to show our bodies that there is a reason to
grow bigger and stronger. We are going to be placing some increased demands
on these muscles, so you better make them bigger!
In order for this to happen, the stimulus you are subjecting your body to MUST

be greater than it is used to. Sounds simple enough, right?
Well, the problem is that your body is smarter
than you are. It’s going to tell your brain to
shut your muscles off. It doesn’t want to do
all this work you’re subjecting it to, so it
starts to create lactic acid.
Lactic acid builds up and your
muscles STOP! This is a fact we
cannot control.
Being a research junky, I had
always read about overloading
the muscle and overloading the
nervous system to stimulate
new muscle and strength gains,
respectively. Time under tension
was proven to be the number
one factor that correlated with
muscle growth and overload!
Something clicked in my brain!
Time under MAXIMAL
TENSION!! This had to be better
than just time under tension!
And so, my GROWTH BABY
was born!

Solution #4
NEUROLOGICAL OVERLOAD SET-NOS!!
So, you’re in the gym, feeling all cool and pumped up for today’s big workout. You
feel strong and you feel like you’re going to build some serious NEW MUSCLE
today!
You pick up a BIG weight that you know you can rock for a perfect 8 reps!
You knock out the first 4 reps, piece of cake.
Rep 6 comes around and here comes the burn!
Rep 7, ooooh it’s getting heavy. Muscles burn like fire.
8th rep is darn near impossible, but you get it.
You set the weight down and stand up. You feel a bit of a pump in your muscle,
but nothing great. You feel like you could have done more but you know you gave
it your all; your body just shut off.
Was it because your muscle was actually
completely exhausted? Or if someone put a gun
to your head, could you have done more?
Is there ANY way you could have asked your muscles to continue to work?
Maybe you could’ve extended that time under tension just a little bit?
OF COURSE!

Your brain clicks on and you hear “Eye of the Tiger” playing somewhere in the
background (Rocky soundtrack always randomly turns on at times like this,
people…you know that! ;))
You grab a slightly lighter weight and keep rockin’!
You blast out 6 more reps! Your Time Under Tension IS WAY greater now.
You even knock out a couple of partial reps with perfect form!
Somewhere in the back of your mind you see Rocky running up those stairs and
feel the urge to march on!
You grab the next weight and smash out another 6 perfect reps!!
So fired up, nothing can stop you now! You continue one more time with a slightly
lighter weight.
WOW!! Now you’re cooked.
Your muscle couldn’t budge
another rep, not another
partial. You could barely lift the
weight of your arms.
THIS is what we call
VICTORY!
You have just elicited the
MOST AMAZING environment
for muscular growth
imaginable. Congratulations!
Rocky would be proud!
By taking this set to complete

muscular failure, not only have you overloaded your muscles, and your
overloaded nervous system, you have also just started the process of creating
the optimal hormonal environment for growth.
When you take you muscles to exhaustion, your body now sees a need to
make them bigger to adapt to this type of stimulus so it starts releasing Growth
Hormone and IGF-1 (insulin-like growth factor).
These two hormones are HIGHLY correlated with muscle growth and reduction
in body fat!
That brings us to…. the next
GAMECHANGER!
This one is the glue that binds it
all together.
Now that I’ve shared just about
every secret you’re ever going
to need to know about building
muscle inside the gym….
It’s time for what you need to
know OUTSIDE the gym.

Muscle Killer #5
Gaining FAT Faster Than You Gain MUSCLE!?
I’m not going to sit here and assume you all don’t already know how important
nutrition is to optimizing growth. I KNOW you do.
People come to me all the time and ask “What is the BEST approach to take
if I want to gain muscle and lose fat?”
Is that even possible?
Well, the truth of the matter is that, yes, it is absolutely possible.
Is it easy? Of course not. BUT it is SIMPLE.
Let me do my best to explain.
Your first consideration when it comes to nutrition is RECOVERY.
You need to always ensure that your body has what it needs to recover when
it needs it.
It is very important to nourish your muscles around the workout.
Your muscles need protein, in the form of amino acids, present in the
bloodstream ALL the time or the body will start to leach those aminos from other
parts of your body (Read: break down your muscles). This is BAD NEWS for
those of us trying to build muscle.
REMEMBER: Weight training is a catabolic process -- it breaks down muscle!
It’s when we leave the gym and feed the body that the growth and re-growth
processes occur.

Whenever possible we want to minimize the amount of muscle breakdown during
the workout. In order to do this, certain essential nutrients MUST be present:
— branch chain aminos
— glutamine
— arginine
— antioxidants
— glucose
— zinc
This is your first consideration when it comes to building muscle.
The other main considerations of an intelligent nutrition plan are timing
of nutrients, and ratio of nutrients (percentage of fats/carbs/proteins).
How do I know WHEN to EAT WHAT?
I think by this point in my life I have probably read EVERY nutrition book ever
written (or at least started to read them all. Some are terrible so I toss them out
halfway through).
I have probably tried every single logical approach to nutrition at some point in
my life.
I was once a vegetarian; I have tried really high carb, low protein; I have tried
high protein, low carb; zero carb; zero fat; gluten free; Ketogenic diet; Metabolic
diet; Hollywood diet; Fasting diet….you get the idea!
The only one I think I haven’t tried yet is raw food diet because I just don’t think
I could support my bodyweight with the limited food sources.
I could tell you pros and cons of each one for someone trying to build muscle
and optimize their body composition (a.k.a.,Lose Fat).

My approach to nutrition is very much a hybrid of them all. I believe I have taken
the best points from each one and manipulated them to create a formula for
people trying to build lean muscle without the excess fat.
Solution #5
3-Phase Nutrition
Phase 1 of “3-P” is the “recovery” phase.
This phase is centered around taking the time to ensure that your body is getting
everything it needs to recover from the overload of weight training and daily
stress that you subject it to.
The idea here is to take time to establish the EXACT minimum requirements to
meet your bodies needs on a day- to- day basis. As the recovery process begins
DURING the workout, so does the P-1 phase.
The calculations are quite simple and applicable to everyone.
Workout carb requirement:
Lean Bodyweight x 0.3= Liquid carb requirement for growth(G)
Lean Bodyweight x 0.3/2= Liquid Carb requirement for fat loss(FL)
We now use this number [(G) OR (FL)] as our baseline number.
Post workout Window- Protein Requirement:
Multiple your baseline number x 2 for your post- workout protein requirement.

Divide your baseline number by 2 to get your BCAA and Glutamine amount in
grams. Split BCAA And Glutamine into 2 equal servings, pre- and post- workout.
So here it is in action…
EXAMPLE
MI40 Massive Muscle Builder #1 weighs 170lbs and is 10% bodyfat (therefore
153lbs lean). He is looking to gain muscle.
His calculation looks like this:
153 x 0.3= 51 grams of carbs to be consumed *around workout.
1) He should try to consume 102g of protein in the 3-hr “POST WORKOUT
Window”
2) He should consume 25g of BCAA and 25g of Glutamine each, divided into
two servings. One pre- workout, and one post- workout. (12.5g each time)
Pretty simple, right?
Take the time to calculate YOUR ‘P1’ values NOW!
Do not waste another minute in the gym if you’re not supporting the recovery
process.
Phase 2 of “3-P” is “Setting your metabolism”
The second phase of 3-PN is all about establishing your metabolism where
YOU want it to be!
Yes, this is absolutely possible.

Someone wanting to lose body fat should look at getting their metabolism going
as fast as possible before they start the fat burning process.
For some people, this may take up to 3 weeks; others may achieve it in a week.
The standard amount of time for this “metabolic recondition-ing” is 10 days in
MI40.
The timing of your food is extremely important. The ratio of protein/carbs/fats
is also obviously extremely important.
This phase is also very important for teaching your body how to use nutrients
the way you want it to. It’s no secret that 80% of North Americans do not use
carbohydrates well. It will be during P-2 that we diligently time your nutrients
and use the proper supplementation to allow your cells to re-learn how to
properly use carbohydrates.
More effective use of carbohydrates = more muscle growth and less fat!
My complete MI40 System is being released
to the public on November 29th for a
special $30 Off Launch Special and I’ll walk
you through this phase step-by-step.
Phase 3 of “3-P” is is the phase that is most important to directing and
guiding your body exactly where YOU want it to go.
This is the phase where we add or remove calories/nutrients to achieve the
specific goal we have set out to achieve.
Most of the participants of MI40 are going to be following what is called a
“P-3+” phase.

This is specifically designed to ensure that your body is getting all the nutrients it
needs AT THE RIGHT TIMES!
Nutrient timing is THE ONLY WAY to manipulate gains: WHEN your body
gets WHAT is the number one most important growth variable outside the
gym.
MI40 is going to be pushing your limits of physical performance and growth. Your
body is going to require a greater amount of nutrients than it is used to. This is
necessary to support all the growth processes.
“But, wont I get fat?”
NO. If you push your physical limits in the gym, your body is going to have a
huge increase in demand for nutrients and will burn right through them.
To ensure there is NO FAT STORAGE, MI40 will also prescribe a certain degree
of NUTRIENT CYCLING.
We give your body all that it needs to grow. Filly those muscles right up so they
are strong and ready to grow and recover. Just when they are just about filled
to the max, we manipulate the nutrient ratios and prevent spillage.
ALWAYS maintain your P-1+ status. This means you keep your recovery protocol
exactly as prescribed above(+).
This is essential to maintain recovery and prevent muscle wasting.

On November 29th,
I will be releasing the full
System
via a closed door invitation only presale.
It combines literally everything we’ve discussed in this report (and a
ton more) in to a full-on, step-by-step, 6-week muscle-growing program
that will have you double and even triple your gains in half the time.
And because you downloaded this report, you will have the opportunity
to get the entire system before anyone else, AND at a sweet discount
with some surprise bonuses.
Beyond that, I’ll also be hooking you up with even more FREE content
over the course of the next two weeks, including an opportunity to win
one of FIVE free copies of the entire MI40 system that we’ll be giving
away. Stay tuned; I plan to take very good care of you.
